FILE - This April 3, 2015, file photo, shows an ACE Cash Express outlet on San Mateo Boulevard in Albuquerque, N.M. The outlet sits on a block which has several small loan storefronts. The lenders who advance people money on their paychecks charge exorbitant interest rates that often snare the most vulnerable customers in a cycle of debt, the industry’s critics have long said. Yet even consumer advocates who loathe the industry admit it fulfills a need: Providing small amounts of cash quickly to people who can’t qualify for credit cards or a bank loan.
